ABSTRACT
In this chapter, we will describe the principal features of fracture of polymers and other solids under the action of mechanical and electric fields and correlation between fracture and electrophysical properties. Among numerous publications devoted to studying the correlation between fracture and electric phenomena [449 - 462], let us mention works [449, 450] which were the first to find the phenomenon of electron emission upon fracture. The results of the studies on the electric fracture were summarized in [463].
